Chapter 6:
"If confusion is the first step to knowledge, I must be a genius." - Larry Leissner
Tatsumi left shortly after so that Hisoka could get his 'rest'.
'Rest, my ass.' Hisoka thought mentally as some more nurses tittered around him. Oh just wait until he had more strength! They'd caught him in his weakest moments but before they knew it, he'd pull some kung-fu moves on them!
As he was picturing himself and the nurses getting kung-fu moves on them, a doctor came in and looked over at Hisoka rather strangely. The nurses were too.
Right….Muttering to himself was a big NO-NO.
"Hisoka, we'd like to do a few more tests to see if you're fit to go home." The doctor said with a smile and our young hero(ine) gave a sigh of relief. It was about time!
A few more doctors came in as the nurses left, he eyed them warily.
He let out a yelp when one of them poked him wit a needle like item.
"Good reflexes!" A doctor remarked and the others were murmuring.
He twitched as they continued to examine him but what pissed him off the most was that they kept checking his eyes with the blinding light.
Once….Twice…..Three times…
When they came for the fourth time, he growled.
"Tell me, what the hell could be wrong with my eye! My left eye, in fact!
And then there was that silence that frustrates even the most patient person.
………………
…………………………
"You could be blind." One pointed out and the others murmured in agreement.
Hisoka just stared in disbelief.
"Of course! Blind! Why didn't I think of that?" He said with obvious sarcasm and directed a glare at them.
Unfortunately, the doctors took this as a compliment not realizing the sarcasm and merle grinned at each other.
'Oh god..whatever makes Tsu-..Mr.Tsuzuki stupid is affecting them!'
"You seem perfectly normal but just in case, we're going to put you with our psychologist on hand." A doctor informed him with a smile, Hisoka opened his mouth to complain but he was directed (forced) by the large group of doctors to the room which was three doors down from his room.
"Well in you go! Good luck!" A nurse cheered and they were clapping for him, he composed himself before heading in.
The room was quite normal.
Absoutely normal.
It belonged in a $)) kindergarten school! The smiling faces! The weirdly structures in the room! The colours were blinding him! Did they sell sunglasses anywhere near!
"Hello, glad to see you again Hisoka."
He blinked as his eyes adjusted to the horrible pictures of sunflowers and rainbows on the wall, to the man in white.
"Doctor Muraki?" He questioned curiously, the man nodded with a smile.
"What are YOU doing here?" Hisoka said coldly. Sadly though, he could see the doctor fitting in quite nicely in this place.
"Tsubaki has other matters to attend to and I like to take the odd jobs here and there for the local hospitals." Muraki replied with a charming smile (making Hisoka feel like hell just froze over) and waved a hand in the air as if he were dismissing the matter.
"Come now Hisoka, if you take a seat," Muraki gestured to some…foreign objects.
………………
……………
………
"You're expecting me to sit on..what..exactly?" Strained Hisoka, as he looked around the part of the room which Muraki had gestured to.
"How about sitting on the rocking horse?" Muraki asked and Hisoka eyed it.
A pink unicorn with a manic grin with flowers and fairies on it stared at him hauntingly.
He mentally shivered.
"I'm not sitting on that." He replied angrily as he pointed an accusing finger at the rocking horse.
"Oh come on Hisoka, we know all real men aren't afraid to wear pink or sit on such objects." Muraki stated obviously as he sat down on a pink rabbit-like chair that looked like it was trying to hug to death the doctor.
Not that Hisoka was complaining if it did…by any chance.
"Then you right ahead and be a real man." He muttered in a snappish tone that he'd learnt from his mother.
He'd learnt the glare from his father.
Muraki shrugged, "So sit on the beanbag."
Hisoka glanced over to what Muraki had pointed to and stared.
IT was a bright yellow bag with a bright happy smiling face and a Blues Clues toy dog on it.
Hisoka made his way reluctantly trying to sit down on it with pride and dignity. He moved the Blues Clues toy dog and placed it in his lap as he sat down.
This was not humiliating.
This was not humiliating..
This was not humiliating…
This was not humiliating….
He shifted uncomfortably as Muraki took out a notebook and a pencil.
"So Hisoka, anything you'd like to discuss?" Muraki prompted.
…………………
………………………
"This beanbag is smiling at my butt."
………………………
……………
Muraki paused for another few seconds before he actually began to write some things down.
Hisoka stared in disbelief and Muraki peered up.
"That teacher from the accident. Did you know him intimately?" Muraki questioned.
Hisoka growled and held the Blues Clues toy dog closer to himself.
"Intimately, my ass!" He muttered angrily as he buried his face in it.
Muraki raised a curious eyebrow in response and scribbled some more things down.
"So, you two are not involved in any sort of relationship?"
"No! Like hell I'd be involved with that idiot!"
"Hisoka…I meant as family or friend relationship…."
"…………………..I knew that."
"Well on the matter, is he free?"
"How the hell should I know!"
"Hmmmm. I wonder if he'd be interested in date with me if he's not going out with you..?"
"….You're not serious."
"Well you're not going out with him and if he's single then why shouldn't I?"
"……………….."
"Unless….you lik-."
"Go out with the idiot! I don't care!"
"I think you do, Hisoka."
"I'm not gay!"
"So you're bi-sexual?"
"No! I'm straight like-."
"A fire hose?"
"NO! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU WRITING ON THERE!"
"Oh well, you two would of made a nice couple.."
"What!"
"Do you think he's cute?"
"…….."
"Come now, you can be honest."
"BITE ME BAMBI."
Hisoka glared at Muraki and he merle smiled before writing some more things down, there was a knock on the door and a nurse appeared.
"Mr. Tsuzuki Asato is ready to be councilled. Is Hisoka Kurosaki alright?"
Muraki smiled, "Oh yes, we're just finishing now."
The nurse left with a smile and Hisoka looked up grumbling from hiding behind the Blues Clues Toy.
"From what I can see Hisoka, you're suffering from a lot of things but you need to be honest with yourself and your feelings. For your sake and others sakes who might care for you. Denial isn't a pretty thing for the body physically or mentally."
Hisoka stared in complete and utter shock in disbelief.
There was a silence as Muraki wrote some more things down and Hisoka took it as a sign to leave.
He tried to get up but sadly discovered that…
….The beanbag was sucking him in.
Hisoka's eyes widened and Muraki smiled before going over to help him up, holding out his hands for support.
He took them gratefully and Muraki helped pull him up, unfortunately Hisoka tripped and Muraki went to support him.
Hisoka looked up at Muraki who merle smiled, "...You're very beautiful.."
He stared rather shocked as a spell was made through his eyes to Muraki's eyes.
And then it broke only a few seconds later as Muraki combed back some of his hair from his eyes.
Hisoka pushed Muraki back with a glare.
"Don't touch me or I'll pull your freakin hands off!" He snapped as he turned towards the door as Muraki merle chuckled.
Hisoka was shocked to see Tsuzuki who looked pale and nervous as if he'd seen a truly sickening sight with a look of anger in his eyes. If he hadn't taken a batch of the pills, Hisoka would of known Tsuzuki's emotions which made him slightly curious.
….Was he angry?
"Mr.Tsuzuki.." Hisoka uttered curiously before Tsuzuki merle grinned delighted at him.
"Yay! Soka-chan's okay now!"
Hisoka's eyes went to the ground as he walked past Tsuzuki hurriedly.
As he passed Tsuzuki, he bumped him on the shoulder but even though he was drugged by the pills he still felt it.
Guilt. Unhappiness. Sadness. And a question that caused these three emotions. 'Is..Hisoka..upset?'
Hisoka hesitated only for a second before he continued through the door, a nurse was waiting on the other side to take him to the exit.
In the end, Hisoka decided that he'd take the bus home.
Well…really that was his only option but it was nice to think of the possibilities.
He had a lot to think about…
The bus finally came and Hisoka entered paying the fee. He was forced to stand holding onto a pole as the bus took off.
Okay, so Mr. Tsuzuki was a nice….
….cute…
…..delicious…
..looking-guy…
…………………………
"Mummy! Why is that boy drooling?"
……………………Crap, he was drooling!
Hisoka quickly found drool and wiped it off.
Dammnit! He was meant to summon pictures of Tsuzuki and twitch!
'It's probably because of the medication..and..that…'
He blushed.
Oh no! He was not thinking about the kiss that he'd shared with the teacher.
Not the delicious, utterly mouth watering kiss that still made his lips tingle.
….And to think, Hisoka mused thoughtfully; he didn't even use his tongue.
This brought the issue of what it would be like if Tsuzuki had done.
…………………………..Shiver.
"Mummy! There's a monster in that boy's pants!' To the same innocent child squealed pointing at him.
………Crap.
He gave a glare to the child, who shut up immediately and turned away as he shifted himself to a different position so no one could see his 'problem'.
He smiled satisfied.
Until he realized that his glare only worked on small children and animals.
Hisoka made a mental note that he'd practice his glare in the mirror when he got home.
Soon his bus stop appeared and he was allowed to get off, so he could start heading home.
Then it began to rain.
God, his life SUCKED.
